Welcome to the College of Science and Engineering web site. I invite you to explore these pages to learn more about our degree programs, learning communities, and ongoing research activities. Each of our departments is dedicated to offering superior and innovative academic programs in a supportive environment that promotes the highest levels of learning.
Our faculty members have been trained at some of the world’s leading universities. While many of these individuals could work at top research institutions, they choose to work at UCA because they value the opportunity to train students in the classroom and laboratory and to mentor students in their research programs.
College facilities include a new mathematics and computer science building, a recent chemistry building, and renovated spaces in our other buildings that contain state-of-the-art classrooms, laboratories, and technology. Our faculty members have a long history of success in obtaining outside funds to improve facilities, acquire state-of-the-art instrumentation, and conduct cutting-edge research. Our undergraduates often acquire a level of hands-on experience that is not typically acquired at other institutions until graduate school. Many undergraduates are involved in research through our thriving Student Research Program or through internships with partner agencies and companies. It is not uncommon for an undergraduate to have shared authorship with a faculty member on a publication, or to deliver a presentation at a national conference.
I hope you will seriously consider joining our learning community at UCA, including our new STEM Residential College. We are confident that our student-centered, collaborative approach to education will prepare you well for a career in the sciences, mathematics, or computing. Please do not hesitate to contact me, or any member of our faculty, for additional information. I encourage you to schedule a visit to further explore the opportunities that we have to offer. We are here to help you make the right decision for your educational future. We thank you for considering our programs at UCA!
